This series of seals and calligraphy are inspired by the classic, I Ching (Yi Ching, ). Through this series of works, I want to penetrate into the society we are living through I Ching and practice the wisdom of life by calligraphy. I want to transform the abstract literal meaning into a more approachable way. The content of the seals is taken from I Ching which impressed me a lot. It makes me realize the living condition I encounter and give me a hint to go through the difficulties. For the calligraphy, it is an extension of the content on seals. I take some related social issue as I think it really fits into the circumstances. That’s how I connect the ancient wisdom into such a modern society.

《易經》雖然歷經數千年的滄桑,卻從沒過時;每每翻閱這本經典,總有當頭棒喝之感。這一系列作品,反映我如何從《易經》了解這個社會、如何用書法實踐當中的智慧。印章的內容是從《易經》摘錄出來,而書法所描繪的則是與今天有關的主題。《易經》的字詞本是生澀難懂,而我希望將內容與今天的社會議題或名人名句連接起來,並找到當中的共鳴。
